This is a fast food Japanese restaurant in Westfield mall in SF.
I got the bento box combo. It’s good if you want a variety of things. I got it with beef. Next time I would get it with chicken (beef was ok, but I think the chicken will be better).
An American restaurant I keep coming back to, mainly since they have a lot of variety, and they have plenty of drink selections (they have a blender plus happy hour!).
This time around I got an old fashioned and the Deep dish ziti. The old fashioned usually has about two shots of alcohol in it, although admittedly it isn’t the best old fashioned.
The deep dish ziti is basically like a meat lovers pizza in pasta form (and I’ve definitely re-ordered it multiple times).
Tried this Filipino food truck, and I would come here again if I felt like eating Adobo.
I ordered the “I love my adob(r)o”. It was adobo with pork belly (not a lot of fat, which is what I prefer), with rice and a side of vegetables (the sweet corn and fried okra were a good accent to the main meal).
And I also did try the mimosa. I’ve gotta say, it’s worth the $5.
I would come back here again. Not every day I try something Jamaican.
Their alcohol collection is only beer and wine, so I got a chardonnay.
For the main course, I got the jerk chicken (small portion, which was jus right). It was a bit spicey, but still manageable. It also came with some really good tasting plantains. The rice was a bit drier than I was expecting. Overall, I enjoyed the meal.
I would come back to this place, but probably stick to the appetizers.
For a drink, I got an old fashioned and a something else (which I can’t remember he name or whether it was good. Hmm ;)).
For appetizers, we got the poutine, calamari and Mac and cheese. All of them but the poutine I would get again.
For the main course, I got the pork shoulder. It was ok, but I would choose something else to eat for next time.
Update (6/8/18): I got the Fried chicken, and I gotta say that it was pretty good. Also, I tried the dennoginizer double IPA (suggested by Yuriy), and I will definitely come back for it.
Update (6/8/18):
Overall, good food, but very strong drinks.
For a drink, I got a mango martini. It basically tasted like vodka (I’m conflicted if I would get it again. The hint of mango was good, but was really strong).
We got a clam appetizer, and the best part was dipping the bread with the mashed potatoes that came with it.
For the main course, I got the Hawaiian half rack ribs. The garlic fries were a bit too garlicky for me, but the ribs and coleslaw were good.
Thought I’d change it up a bit and go to the Other food truck place nearby, soma street food. I definitely enjoyed the chill house music the DJ was playing (although I don’t think having a DJ is a regular thing for them).
The selection for food trucks was more than Spark SF, but Sundays some of them were not open.
The place I tried was Twister, which is an Asian fusion food truck. I got the bulgogi (with salad and gyoza). I though everything tasted good, but the total cost was $15, which I think is a bit pricey for what I got.
I would go back to this place, although it was a bit pricey for the fact that it looked like a dive bar (food was good).
We got to Ryoko around 7:30pm, and waited 15 minutes for a table for 3 (not bad, considering an hour later the line was really long. We did notice, however, you can drink in the line while waiting. Also later on a DJ comes on, which we didn’t get to experience).
For my drink, I got an lychee Saketini. OMG. Very tasty (although Cyrene thought it was too sweet). They also have a full bar, which I would take advantage of next time.
For the food, we got soft shell crab (it was a decent sized crab), tako wakame su (basically octopus salad, which was ok, but wouldn’t order again mainly since it’s by my thing. Cyrene enjoyed it), rainbow roll (which I thought was good), and the sushi dinner (sashimi, which tasted fresh and was a good size for 2 people).
Went to Spark SF and wanted to try the ramen (only open on Saturdays). I have to say that I enjoyed it.
I ordered the tonkatsu ramen with beef shoulder (other option was pork belly). Noodles were not overly hard. It was a bit spicy (and I did order mild), but I didn’t mind.
Update (10/6/18): I order the Yaki-Soba. It was a bit too salty for me (but didn’t hate it). I’ll stick to ordering ramen at this place in the future.
Came here with my team for a team lunch (not on Apple’s dime), and overall, not sure if I would come back.
I ordered the grilled chicken tacos, with a side of Mac cheese balls (basically Mac and cheese surrounded by a deep fried layer). I have to say I wasn’t a fan of the tacos (the taco shell was not super tasty… very “corny”).
For the drink, I ordered the Eureka! punch, which from the ingredient list had a lot going on (over 10 things in it). It was sweet, but too the point of too sweet even for me.
